South Wales or West Mids perhaps?

A small portable tabletop jobbie would work well, a full sized one less so ๐Ÿ™‚

EDIT or a scroll saw

A cheap jigsaw would probably be ok.

It's two A4 sized sheets that need to be in small 7cm ish squares. I have a jigsaw but straight lines aren't so easy freehand.

Send me the sheets I can cut them on the laser if you need polished edges or on the table saw if are okay with slightly rougher ones.

Mount the jigsaw upside down onto a piece of MDF/ply and screw a fence at whatever size you need.

And be careful as the blade isn't protected.
